Services
Local County Departments of Environmental Health have adopted policies of inspecting existing Sand Filter systems if they have not received a record of inspection or maintenance. The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) Onsite Rules OAR 340-071-290(2)(a) allows the Counties to periodically inspect existing systems and charge the owner a fee.
We offer a variety of products and services that represent the very best in Septic Sand Filter products, design and installation. Because our quality control standards are high, we select only the highest caliber materials, including products from Orenco Systems. Our goal is always to deliver whatever it is that you need.
Intermittent Sand Filters (ISF) are an ideal advanced treatment solution where high groundwater, poor soils, or other site constraints rule out conventional septic systems. Tucked neatly underground, modern ISFs can be planted over with lawn or flowers to blend into your landscaping. Following primary treatment in the septic tank, wastewater from the home is filtered through a pump vault to keep solids in the tank and out of the sand filter.
Recirculating Sand Filters (RSF) are an excellent method for bringing wastewater that varies in volume and strength up to advanced treatment levels. RSFs can handle the job for just about any application; Homes, Schools, Resorts, rest areas, Campgrounds, Private residential developments, RV and mobile home parks and even small communities.
Risers provide access to septic tank openings and can be used to provide access to other components in the system such as splitter valves, etc. Constructed of ribbed PVC pipe. Standard risers are offered in 6 length increments up to 13 feet. Available diameters are 18", 21", 24" and 30". Small Access risers are used as valve enclosures, inspection ports, and service connection risers.

There are many good things about this company, too many to list. Lisette and the rest of the staff go out of their way to be helpful and save you money. I have heard this from multiple other people as well. They are HONEST, and that can be hard to find in a company. If you need an honest appraisal of what is going on with your system and a reasonable repair price, this is the place!

This business was hired for a new septic system install, of a home we purchased. We moved into our new home the day after install. After the first rain the ground was literally caving in, due to the soil not correctly being compacted. Sinking past your ankles in mud. We had neighbors ask who did the work, because it looked so awful.. we decided to find out who did the work and give them an opportunity to fix it. We were told this was “normal settling”. Please avoid this company if you don’t want poor craftsmanship.
I would also like to add that we received two separate opinions, one from

As a real estate broker, we are constantly facing deadlines to avoid closing delays. I had called almost every septic company in town and Lisette was the ONLY one who listened to what the issue was, and scheduled us in her already packed schedule to accommodate. Her prices were considerably lower than other bids and she actually explained each and every charge and what they would be doing. She always returned my calls/emails. They showed up when they were supposed to, finished the job in a day and left my clients ecstatic to be able to close on time without weeks of delay. Extremely grateful!

Lisette came out to our property in November 2017 to check on an alarm for our septic tank. We had just bought the property and came from the city so we were still learning. My husband was at work and I was at home with out then 8 month old son. Lisette fit us into her already very busy route and came to look right away. Thankfully it was an easy fix as our breaker box wasn’t labeled correctly. Now we are actually having an issue with the septic tank again and Lisette is the first and only person I will call to come out. She was so kind and knowledgeable in our previous experience. She took the

BEWARE!!! I had Affordable Septic come out and they told me i needed an entire new system at the tune of $25,000. I got the permits and paid Lisette $750 to do the plan. I decided to get a second opinion and the company i called advised me to have an inspection on the tank because they could find nothing wrong with it. I had county inspection done and there was nothing wrong with the tank. All i needed was a new drain field. Affordable wanted $10,000 for new drain field and the other company came out and said they would be happy to help me since i had already been through so much. It cost me $5

We trusted Lisette and were let down immensely. We were on a timeline to install our septic by October. We contacted her in August, and she gave us a bid. We decided to proceed, even though there was a potential for other bids, we were wanting to be cautious for our timeline. At the end of September, she told us she couldn't do our job until next year, after taking a $750 fee for a little over an hour's worth of work. The only reason we paid this amount was because we thought she would complete the job. I emailed her several times and we were unable to come up with a consensus on the amount of
